When Tapestry spills like a Velvet Ribbon of Light
Condensing into the Space of Time yet Standing between Us,
And Caresses my Spirit with its Gentlest Hand,
Then my Heart Knows Purest Contentment
In this world of Harsh Reality,
Then my Spirit Sighs for Sweetest Delight,
In One Lingering Moment
That Stretches out its hand into the Darkness Obscuring my Sight,
Emblazoning my mind with Rapturous thoughts of You,
My Sweetest One,
My Most Precious Love,
My All.

Touch my hand with Your Enticing Warmth,
Draw me in like a Sweet Breath
Under the Blissful Balm of Starlit Night,Where the Heavens Reach in spangled Glory. Tapestry of Dreams,
Song of Echoes,
Stirring the Wandering musings of my mind
In Dizzy spells of Enchantment,
As You Do, My Most Beloved One.

Lean Near to me beneath this Shrine of Ancient Light,
Allow me to Gaze in Breathless Wonder
Into the Remarkable Depths of Your Lustrous stare,
Beguiled and Bewildered
By the Intoxicating Allure I See,
Spinning my Senses with the Wealth of Splendor
Spanning O’er our Heads,
As You Do, My Most Beloved One.

Press Your Perfect lips to mine
In the silhouette of Luminous Moonlight,
Undo my every notion with the Blush of Your Sweet Kiss,
And Listen to the Heartbeat of my Pure Elation,
Like the Mystical Symphony of Harmonious cosmos
Singing in Resplendent tones of Purest Joy,
Matchless in its Exquisiteness,
As You Are, My Most Beloved One.

The poem that follows is a collaboration I recently wrote with fellow poet Braeden Micheals. As he explains in his bio he is: “Born in the cold and lives in the warmth. A fan of Dr. Seuss. A lover of words. A man that can find light in the dark. A man that can see beauty in pain. A lyricist, writer, and a poet.” His blog Overflowing Ink always holds something unique, something provoking, something stirring. We began with the beautiful quote, which is from Guillermo del Toro’s ‘The Shape of Water’. I found it So Beautiful, So Passionate…and it stirred both our imaginations, promoting a conversation between two lovers. Braeden’s verses are in italics to designate his writing. I hope you will enjoy the verse we’ve created.

“Unable to perceive the shape of you, I find you all around me. Your presence fills my eyes with your love. It humbles my heart, for you are everywhere.”

You are the Breath of Passion
The Embodiment of all my Heart beats for,
Longs for,
All this understanding
So unworthy of the least of You,
Can ever perceive.

You are the blood in my veinsSaliva drippings from the fire ooze magicAll this longwinded gustSoar through every inch ofmy glowing urges

Stars that span the ebon Nighttide,
Miracles of Light and Time
are mere phantoms,
shallow and hapless,
Unremembered figments of Yesterday
Compared to the Depth of my Love

I can see fragments of the twinklesSweat pouring from the golden heavensCaught in a whirlwind of passionYour moans are magnetizingNever ending cravingsWatching you grip the sheets,sigh

All that Speaks of mystery
All that Whispers portentous enigmas
All the Hums with the Vibrancy of Forever
Are Fading shadows,
Dim and Meaningless
Compared to the Depth of my Passion

How I Sigh in your Sweet Embrace!
How my skin yearns for the Touch of Your hands,
How these lips long to be Kissed by
Yours,
How I have waited,
Breathless, Trapped, Longing
For Your Sweet Honeyed Love!

A bellow of raw wordsIntoxicating oceansCommanding you to vulnerabilityTaste the lava, taste the lavaOverwhelming fervorYearning for more

.

I would like to thank Braeden for taking time out of his busy schedule to collaborate with me. I always enjoy writing with another, and this was no different, while being effortless and delightful. Thank you!
